We were so lucky to be visiting on a day when eggs had hatched! Can you see the tiny turtles that made it to the edge of the beach? They will be scooped up by a wave in the next few seconds. Only 1 out of 1000 hatchlings will make it to the adult age so these endangered cteatures can really use all the help they can get. 😔
